Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the PVM-10V470ME60E-R2 are qualified based on strict electrical and mechanical parameter equivalence. The substitution logic is structured as follows:

Critical Matching Parameters:

• Capacitance: 47 µF (exact match required)
• Voltage Rating: 10 V (exact match required)
• Tolerance: ±20% (exact match required)
• Type: Polymer (exact match required)
• Package / Case: Radial, Can - SMD (exact match required)
• Physical Dimensions: 0.197" Dia (5.00mm), Height 0.236" (6.00mm), Land Size 0.209" L x 0.209" W (5.30mm x 5.30mm) (exact match required)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount (exact match required)

Performance Parameters (Equal or Better Acceptable):

• ESR: 28 mOhm or lower
• Lifetime @ 105°C: 2000 Hrs or greater
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C ~ 105°C or wider
• Ripple Current @ 100 kHz: 2.31 A or greater

Compliance Parameters (Must Maintain or Exceed):

• RoHS3 Compliance (required)
• MSL Level 1 or lower (acceptable)

Both identified substitute parts meet all critical matching parameters and maintain or exceed performance specifications.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both substitute parts PCJ1A470MCL1GS and PCF1A470MCL6GS from Nichicon are qualified equivalents for the PVM-10V470ME60E-R2 based on the following engineering criteria:

PCJ1A470MCL1GS (Nichicon):

• Identical ESR specification (28 mOhm) to the primary part
• Identical ripple current rating (2.31 A @ 100 kHz)
• Identical lifetime specification (2000 Hrs @ 105°C)
• All critical electrical and mechanical parameters match exactly
• Active product status with high inventory availability (8721 Pcs)
• ROHS3 compliant
• Direct functional equivalent with no performance trade-offs

PCF1A470MCL6GS (Nichicon):

• Lower ESR specification (26 mOhm) compared to primary part, representing improved performance
• Higher ripple current rating (2.6 A @ 100 kHz) compared to primary part, representing improved performance
• Identical lifetime specification (2000 Hrs @ 105°C)
• All critical electrical and mechanical parameters match exactly
• Active product status with adequate inventory availability (3984 Pcs)
• ROHS3 compliant
• Enhanced performance characteristics with no compatibility concerns

Both parts maintain ROHS3 compliance and are suitable for direct substitution in surface mount applications requiring 47 µF, 10 V aluminum polymer capacitors with radial can SMD packaging.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can PCJ1A470MCL1GS and PCF1A470MCL6GS be used interchangeably with PVM-10V470ME60E-R2?

A: Both Nichicon parts are qualified substitutes. PCJ1A470MCL1GS provides identical electrical performance. PCF1A470MCL6GS provides improved performance with lower ESR and higher ripple current capability. All three parts share identical physical dimensions, mounting requirements, and package specifications.

Q: What are the key differences between the two substitute parts?

A: PCJ1A470MCL1GS matches the primary part exactly in ESR (28 mOhm) and ripple current (2.31 A @ 100 kHz). PCF1A470MCL6GS offers superior performance with 26 mOhm ESR and 2.6 A ripple current capability. Both maintain identical capacitance, voltage rating, tolerance, and physical dimensions.

Q: Are there any compliance or regulatory differences?

A: All three parts are ROHS3 compliant. The primary part specifies MSL Level 1 (Unlimited). Substitute parts do not specify MSL level but are qualified for surface mount assembly. REACH status differs between manufacturers but does not affect substitution eligibility.

Q: What is the impact of ESR differences on circuit performance?

A: Lower ESR values improve transient response and reduce heat generation. PCF1A470MCL6GS with 26 mOhm ESR provides superior performance compared to the 28 mOhm specification of the primary part and PCJ1A470MCL1GS. This difference is within acceptable engineering margins for general purpose applications.

Q: Are the physical dimensions identical across all three parts?

A: Yes. All three parts share identical dimensions: 0.197" Dia (5.00mm), Height 0.236" (6.00mm), and Surface Mount Land Size 0.209" L x 0.209" W (5.30mm x 5.30mm). Direct PCB footprint compatibility is confirmed.

Q: What packaging formats are available?

A: The primary part PVM-10V470ME60E-R2 packaging format is not specified. Both substitute parts are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format, standard for surface mount production environments.

Q: Can these parts be used in high-ripple-current applications?

A: All three parts support ripple current operation at 100 kHz. PCF1A470MCL6GS supports 2.6 A, while PVM-10V470ME60E-R2 and PCJ1A470MCL1GS support 2.31 A. Selection depends on specific ripple current requirements of the application circuit.
